My Snap-on dealer is replacing my tool free of charge. He said there was likely more than a thousand pounds of force on my ratchet.

I've removed the whole left front knuckle with the axle attached.

Action shot! The Oxy-acetylene torch will heat up a component and it will expand away from where it is stuck.

My air impact gun still struggled to get the nut off.

Voila!
The axle is being replaced, thats why I had to get it apart. I will cheat on the other side of the car.

My brother made this for me. It's the shape of an '88-91 Honda Civic.
